macaronic

(mak-ah-RON-ik)

adjective: Involving a mixture of languages.

From Latin macaronicus, from Italian dialect maccarone (macaroni),
probably alluding to the jumble of macaroni and sauce on a plate.

"Speaking not in the gleefully macaronic English that has made for such
good, clownish copy in the past, but in his native Italian, he sounded
serious and reflective as he answered questions about his age, his
health, and his dwindling plans for the future."
